It would be cool to publish the 'Trending petitions' history as open data #458

Description

@henryhadlow

Proposal:

  • Add journaling per petition to record the signature count hourly
  • To keep it performant you could have daily rows with 24 columns, one for each hour
  • The signing rate could be easily calculated, just the difference between one hour's count and the previous count
  • We could then add this data to the existing json for each petition (eg https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/124333.json)

This would let people see the signing history of petitions and make mashups where you could see trending petitions against events in the news
